Quote
After analyzing the data, the study authors found that bodybuilders with a history of steroid use were more than twice as likely to exhibit psychopathic traits than those with no history of steroid use. They were also more than three times as likely to engage in substance use risk-taking, almost twice as likely to engage in sexual risk-taking, almost twice as likely to report anger problems, and more than twice as likely to report physical problems.

It’s probably the other way at around.  Psychopaths are more likely to pursue bodybuilding and steroids.

Ha, they do versions of that study every decade. I remember one from the mid 90's that made steroids seem awesome. It had a questionnaire that had what they considered troublesome things, and the % Steroid users vs regular people. I remember the steroid users were something like 20% - 30% higher on average. The questions went something like -

Owns Sports Car?
Has Sped in Excess of 20 mph Over the Stated Limit in the Last Year?
Owns Motorcycle?
Owns Firearms?
Carries Firearm?
Engages in Risky Sexual Practices?
Has had Fist Fight or Committed Assault in the Last Year?
Been Arrested in the Last Year?
Regular Consumer of Alcohol?
Regularly Consumes x Number of Drinks Over an Eight Hour Period?
Regularly Consumes Illicit Drugs in the Last Year? (Cocaine, Weed, and Stimulants scored high among bodybuilders, besides steroids).
Regularly Engages in Risky Sex Practices?

Etc.....

Of course it is.  If you’re gonna inject illegal drugs into your butt just to get bigger muscles, you’re probably gonna take a whole bunch of other risks.

I think those who are drawn to steroids are more along the lines of adrenaline junkies and not psychopaths. People just want to be labeled as a psychopath because it seems like such a “badass trait to have”.

However psychopaths who aren’t serial killers struggle daily to interact with other humans or create and maintain relationships. These people usually end up as alcoholics that can’t keep a job or any friends.

This is true for sure. Most gear users i know are adrenaline junkies, like me.

What i find odd is that i was way crazier and took more risks in my early 20's before i used AAS.

But i've always been a man whore and i do believe taking a lot of Test made me worse.

"twice as likely to engage in sexual risk-taking"

Does this refer to fucking AIDS patients or diving off wardrobes?

Are there bodybuilders that DON’T have a history of steroid abuse?

I remember in my younger years one time using a condom that had spermicide on it.  That shit made it's way into my "dickhole" and it's a pain I'll never forget.  #NeverAgain

Sexual risk-taking would be activities such as citrus sodomy and bug chasin’, no?

I was in high school. After the fact my grandfather sat me down for a talk. His words were "rubbers are for homosexual's and pussies...go raw or go home." Haven't strapped one on since. My grandfather had 12 kids that we know of. RIP Gramps.

The researchers didn't take into consideration the bodybuilders' family history of heart/kidney/liver mental problems

Ralgex Spray is a spray designed to soothe painful muscles and joints in humans when applied to the skin. There is also Ralgex cream available which is used for the same purpose.

Probably true...Bodybuilders take roids because they're fearful, afraid and think the big muscles will scare people, but as we see in MMA big muscles don't  mean much in fighting.
